Question

Prove that light travels in a straight line.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Two experiments are used to demonstrate how light travels in straight lines. In the first example, the presenter arranges three pieces of card, with holes in, in an uneven line. The light stops and cannot travel through all three cards. When she arranges the holes in a straight line, the light can travel through.

Answer 2

Answer:

Place a lighted candle near one of the cardboards (say A). Look at the candle flame from the other side of the cardboard C. The candle flame is clearly seen. Now slightly displace one of the cardboards (say B) so that the holes no longer remain in a straight line.
